[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 346805, member: 2095"] I can see both points of view; BUT to me the rule of thumb is if the cow is worth keeping she is worth registering. IF you direct market, pulling out that binder of papers to show: that this heifer is 'supposedly' in the top ~40% of this breed, or that this Bull's calves have a such and such EPD for REA or that this cow's maternal grand sire was so and so is usually worth the fee. I am not a great conversationalist, so I would rather make my sales pitch out of those papers than stand there and explain why my cows are supposedly better than the cheapest cow the dude saw at the stockyard last week.
